I was brought into a manufacturing and distribution company to enable the ability to create 1099 and 1042 forms in their existing SAP instance and file them electronically. The client, headquartered in Japan, had manually performed this task and it had become too cumbersome with an increased number of these forms required to filed. I enabled Extended Tax Withholding in SAP, had their Basis group apply updated SAP Notes, and tested the new configuration with the client to their satisfaction. Once they received their Transmitter Control Code (TCC) from the IRS the client was able to test and file 1099’s and 1042’s with the IRS electronically, increasing efficiency, reducing errors, and reducing risk to the company.

Simple, right???
